Knowledge is power, the adage from Francis Bacon, the British philosopher of 16th-17th century, is more self-evident than ever before in its meaning in global information and commercial society of today. The Hong Kong Intellectual Property Exchange (HKIPX) offers you Midas touch to convert your "knowledge" into personal wealth. Inventions, literary and artistic works, trademarks and brands, collectively known as the wisdom of mankind, are indeed a huge "gold mine". Unfortunately, its value has been historically ignored or undervalued.
HKIPX has made ready a marketplace for IP holders to access capital markets through its experts with decades of experience in the industries of intellectual property, finance and capital markets. To do this, HKIPX is offering three major trading engines with different functionality to buyers and sellers of intellectual properties: 1) Intellectual Property Flea Market, 2) Financing Platform for Intellectual Property Project and 3) SIPP trading Engine. On the following section highlights SIPP Trading Engine:
Besides the traditional contents of patents & technology, trademarks and brands, copyrights and cultural assets, intellectual property goes well beyond to include much more in the intangible assets. Intellectual property covered in this section will focus the following concepts:
Patents and technologies: inventions, utility models, industrial designs, technical secrets and know-how, business models and industrial resources, etc.
Copyrights and cultural assets: acrobatics, architectural design, art works, computer software, dance, drama & opera, folk literature, literary works, movies & TV programs, music, oral literature, photography, technical drawing, theater and opera, written works.
Trademarks and brands: 3D trademarks, alphabetic mark, color composite marks, graphic trademark, numeric mark, word mark and other composite marks.
The IP Micro Transaction Engine changes the inefficient traditional method of technology transfer through mechanism of market competition in an open and fair environment, market-oriented pricing mechanism by streamlining the IP transaction process. The engine has four trading formats (buy now, auction, brokered deals, and licensing) for items worth HK$1,000 up to HK$5,000,000. Sellers will list information of intellectual property rights at HKIPX website. HKIPX will release the listing after auditing. Buyers and sellers will then be able to review the listing at the IP Micro Transaction Engine. Buyers and sellers can choose one of the four trading formats (buy now, auction, brokered deals, and licensing) to complete the transaction based on the seller's prior choice. Platform oversees the fairness, legality of the transactions and safety of funds.
The Micro Transaction Engine is suitable for intellectual property which
has not yet been commercialized (eg: Approved patent technology, trademark
branding and copyright created, etc.) or intellectual property which will be
generated (Content under application or in concept stage).
